I've been looking at caps for season 8 and have been struck by the physical impact this season has had on most of the characters this season. The only one not physically wrecked at this point is Dean but emotionally he's been broken down quite a bit too. Here are caps from early in the season, mostly from 8.01 and then from 8.21. I'm afraid it's only going to get worse.
Then
Now
Put next to each other, it's nice to see that some things have improved.
Then there's this. From about as far out of the life to as far in as possible.
Sam and Dean aren't the only ones who've been through the wringer. Kevin and Cas look like whatever the cat dragged in. At least they are both still alive, which is more than could be said for Benny.
From hiding out in a church to staring down Crowley.
From Purgatory to messed up protector of the now-stolen angel tablet.
Even without being spoiled for the last two episodes, I know it's going to get worse for a couple of these guys. Hopefully everybody is still able to walk come the start of season 9. Buckle up, we've still got a lot of bad road ahead.

I'm impressed with how sick Sam looks - they've done a great job with his make up.
And HA! I was looking closely at the ice. It's all too uniform to be real, so fake ice. (also real ice wouldn't last long under those lights I reckon). But I bet the water is cold because I am sure Jared would have wanted it to be. He looked genuinely cold.
(ooh now I need fic where Jared is actually really cold and miserable and Jensen wraps him up and brings him soup. What do they say about life imitating art? :D)
They all look so worse for wear (except for Dean - now that he is not covered in purgatory blood and dirt which was sorta sexy *cough*)
I believe Jared is definitely thinner..which i imagine he has done for the role.(and he had a broken rib which wouldn't have helped)
I think Jared has to work at keeping his weight and muscle mass up and he probably just stopped that for a while..plus the make up (eek but i love hurt Sam..so..)
The change in Kevin is huge. Osric was just saying (at NJ Con) that he was offered two roles but took SPN and is so glad he did..i am TOO!! He has got to play so many different facets of his character.
Great pic spam..thanks so much!
Osric really pulled off the farewell vid. He's grown a lot as an actor over the season. He's been fun to watch.
